Let "x" be the "unknown number" for which we are to solve.
8x − (-54/9) = -18 ; Solve for "x" ;
→ 8x − (-6) = - 18 ;
→ 8x + 6 = - 18 ;
Subtract "6" from each side of the equation:
→ 8x + 6 − 6 = - 18 <span>− 6 ;
to get: 8x = -24 ;
Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "8" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation ; & to solve for "x" ;
8x / 8 = -24 / 8 ;
to get: x = -3 .
